This is photographic evidence of my two elder children...-gasp-...playing a game...-gulp-...by themselves...-SOB- And it lasted for...TWENTY MINUTES!?!?!?

I have memories of playing HOURS of UNO with a group of kids while on vacation. My parents were in the other room...doing I don't know what. Drinking? Playing card games of their own? Having adult conversations uninterrupted by little children?

I have seen the future...and it definitely includes these two playing cards with each other.

(btw...the game box is for holding cards...just flip the box upside down and voila! Card holder.)

(also...can anyone recommend how to tell children to shuffle by themselves...other than just throwing cards around. That was the only snafu this morning...shuffling)

Buy one of those electronic shuffles. All they have to do is split the deck, put half in each side and press a button. Voila! Shuffled!
When I was little I used to just lay them on the ground in two piles then sort of stir them up... not sure how effective that actually was though.
Yeah, we sort of just mixed them up till we got older and could shuffle. The electronic thing is a good idea though.
YAY for siblings playing nicely!
The future looks promising indeed! I love it when my kids realize siblings can serve a purpose other than to fight and torment :)
I spend a LOT of time shuffling for kids. I second the recommendation for an electronic shuffle machine.
